    Eh, Aliens is a great remake of the movie "Them!" on its own. It doesn't deserve to be saddled with the rest of the Ridley Scott franchise.

    1988 Minibot Equivalents

    I was around during G1, but I'm probably not that qualified to answer because most of my collection was Gobots, and by 1988, we were living in places where Transformers weren't readily available. I watched the cartoon regularly, but it didn't continue beyond the 87 assortments, and the comic was...

    Movies and TV Transformers: Cyberworld S2 Episode 5 - BlueJazz

    Jazz certainly has a lot of G1 influence, but some of his moves and his claw-like weapon remind me more of live-action Jazz.

    The new Transformers Deal Thread

    At that price, get 2. The arms are removable, so with 2, he can switch between 2 claws or one claw and one saw, or 2 saws. Despite the super-simple transformation, he's a fun toy!

    Upcoming Live-Action Film Rumors

    I don't know, I'm more familiar with his work as Umibouzu in City Hunter, and I don't ever recall him speaking English there, even though there is occasional English dialog. (Appropos of nothing, I'd still love to see a Transformers x City Hunter crossover. There's at least 5 classic vehicles...

    Upcoming Live-Action Film Rumors

    My 2 cents is, Optimus the character should NOT be retired, but the next voice actor needs to do a voice that is not just their rendition of Cullen's Optimus. I wouldn't mind Tessho Genda doing Optimus, if that were possible (don't really know if he's interested in English voice acting, plus...

    Post Pictures of Your Weirdest Optimus Prime & Megatron Pairings

    Presumably a custom class figure from one of the conventions? Or maybe an unproduced Botcon design?

    Well, that and the Merchandising. Most of that was Transformers stuff, too.

    G.I. Joe thread - 2027 Preorders begin

    Pics are surfacing of the USA250 wave 2 Joes: Wild Bill looks pretty decent with cow print pants, Chuckles is a head-swap away from being Magnum PI, and Flash could easily be a Cobra laser Trooper. As for Snake Eyes, he looks like he bought his costume from a certain transforming jeep...

    Our vacuum sucks, it doesn't suck anymore, which is why it sucks because it doesn't suck.

    Toys Missing Link Headmaster Arcee Revealed!

    Looks like she'll fit in well with Targetmaster Blurr, Kup, and Hot Rod! I'm interested!

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    You hit the nail on the head for me here. Since Targetmaster Blurr is the center that my collection revolves around, this Arcee fits perfectly in with Blurr, Kup, and Hot Rod as an "86" figure retooled to accommodate the new year's gimmick. I would also love to see "Arceedome" become a reality...

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    If they had left the prototype head on the toon colors figure, I might have gone with that one. The toon head made that one feel less authentic to the design. Headmaster Arcee, on the other hand, feels like she would have naturally had the toon head, so it just makes more sense to have this...

    Takara Missing Link G1 Series

    Not gonna lie, depending on price, I will have this at the top of my "need" list. Glad I bought the prototype version, the Headmaster won't feel that redundant in my collection.

    Generations 2027: No More Primes! It is the Age of Evolution!

    I am all for a heroic Megatron, but not at the expense of evil Autobots. Lots of wait and see figures here, but Go-Bots Megatron definitely has my attention.

    Toys Takara Tomy Brings Back Energon Optimus Prime For Their Wild King Toy Line!

    I didn't get any of these, as I (mistakenly, apparently) kind of figured Hasbro would eventually bring them to this side of the pond. My point (and I do have one, I swear!) is, it seems like the Beast dudes have a fairly standard core robot body, and the beastie bits give them their individual...

    The Kaiju Thread of Building-Smashing, Flame-Breathing, and Slam-Dunking

    https://newmonsterelection.com/en/ So, this is a thing. Apparently, there has been a vote going on to pick Godzilla's next opponent for the G-fes short films. The slate of kaiju is...interesting, to say the least: Gigasecto looks like Megalon's buff cousin Candyroy seems like would be a...
